Storytelling for Sailors
hosted by Lin Pardey and Friends

Can you top up your ‘freedom chips’ by sharing your cruising life with others? Whatever format you think will work for you, it all starts with storytelling. In Storytelling for Sailors, we will teach you how to make your story stand out from the rest.

Lin Pardey, along with several special guests, will share tips and ideas on what nautical readers and viewers want to know. You’ll learn ways to ensure your photos, diagrams and video footage add information to your stories and attract attention. For those interested in selling articles to print and online magazines, she’ll show how to get noticed by editors, ways to present work that sells and ideas for expanding your markets. Guest speakers will discuss handling online media and ideas to keep folks watching your YouTube channel.

Special guest authors and editors will cover book creation and publishing, including the realities of self-publishing vs traditional publishing. You will also be given a clear picture of what returns you can expect - along with the pitfalls and the practicalities of adding writing, blogging, photography and video making to your cruising life.

Several other cruisers who are successfully earning cruising funds with blogs, books, YouTube channels and podcasts will join Lin or present by video to add in-depth information on their specialized fields.
